Chapter 806: Unexpected Punishment

Fans are still eagerly looking forward to the league's punishment plan, but they don't know that in the phone call between Xiao Hua and Richard, the punishment plan has been decided.

Richard didn't force Xiao Hua too hard, so that Xiao Hua would not completely ignore tonight's events, in that case, it is estimated that Xiao Hua would definitely not be able to agree.

He gave as much punishment as he could.

Xiao Hua can also accept the strength that Richard said, at least this punishment plan will not cause too many complaints.

Of course, this is Richard, if it is changed to another team, Xiao Hua is estimated to really make an example of chickens and monkeys, and directly come to a new official to take office with three fires and be punished heavily.

For Richard, Xiao Hua is actually full of jealousy, and he knows Richard's energy in this alliance......

If you have a bad relationship with Richard, the lightest outcome will be that the policies promulgated by Xiao Hua will be difficult to implement in the league, and the heaviest outcome will even be the loss of your job.

The position of the president of the alliance does not mean that you can continue to do it after you do it, if you dislike most of the bosses, the bosses will vote and easily oust them from power.

At the end of the day, the president is just a part-time worker, serving the owners of various teams in the league.

Richard's current energy in the league can affect how many teams, Xiao Hua is clear in his heart.

Although he felt that even if the Clippers were heavily fined this time, Richard would not really gather people to drive him down, but if he could take less risk, Xiao Hua was naturally willing to take less risk.

……

After hanging up Xiao Hua with Xiao Hua, Richard took Big Ben to the venue of the press conference.

Seeing Richard's arrival, the reporters on the scene suddenly boiled, and there had not been such a big bustle for many years.

"Ahem...... Richard coughed lightly and took the microphone from the hands of public relations manager Sun Xiaoben.

"I know you're here tonight, and the main thing is to hear what I think about tonight."

"Actually, I don't have any opinion, you should have all inquired about what happened on the field."

"What are you kidding? Is Stoudemire a fool? He dared to mess with Big Ben, I really don't know if he had sulfuric acid in his brain at that time. ”

"When Big Ben dominated this alliance, he was just a brat with no hair!"

"If you want to talk about tonight, I think I played well, Stoudemire deserved to be beaten, if I wasn't old now, I would have played and given him two kicks!"

Richard said mildly into the microphone with a smile.

The reporters in the audience gasped, this is Richard, the devil Richard who has not changed for more than ten years.

When other head coaches encounter this kind of thing, they take the initiative to admit their mistakes, take responsibility, and strive to make the league lenient.

But Richard was good, as soon as he came up, he said that he had played well and deserved to be beaten, so he almost jumped on the table and clapped his hands.

Now reporters are also wondering, if Richard does this, isn't he afraid of heavy penalties from the alliance?

There is no attitude of admitting mistakes at all, can the alliance bear it?

"Mr. Richard, so you think the Clippers are not wrong this time?" A reporter stood up and asked.

Richard just wanted to answer, but Ben took the lead.

"Well, yes, if it happened again, I think I'd do it anyway, no, maybe a little harder......" Big Ben said with a shrug of his shoulders and a rather relaxed attitude.

"How will you face the next punishment of the alliance?" Another reporter asked.

Big Ben shrugged his shoulders again and handed the microphone to Richard, obviously this kind of thing Big Ben didn't want to think about, and he didn't have to think about it, who let himself play under Richard now......

"The alliance punishment you mentioned, we Clippers will accept it in full, no matter what kind of punishment the alliance issues is issued, we will accept it."

"As for the loss of the players as a result, I think I, as the owner of the Clippers, must have an obligation to help the players bear it."

Richard calculated that he sold face to Xiao Hua, and he was very cooperative in the face of the alliance's punishment.

And because Richard is now in control of the Clippers alone, he can now help the players without any psychological burden at all.

Before that, for example, when running the Pirate team with Jordan, if this kind of thing happened, Richard probably wouldn't say such a thing.

It's not that Richard is reluctant to pay for it, but it's not suitable.

Bearing the player's fines and bans, this money is not appropriate.

If Jordan is asked to share the burden, people are not engaged in charity, so why waste so many dollars in vain.

If you take it alone, Jordan can't hold his face, everyone is the owner of the team, what Richard can do, why can't you Jordan do it......

This is also the reason why Richard later thought of starting his own door.

Now, Richard can subsidize the players as much as he wants, provided he has enough money on hand.

In the past two years, after winning the Clippers, Richard's worth has increased considerably, and now it has moved towards the 10 billion mark, just one foot away, maybe Apple, Facebook or Twitter stocks will rise a little at will, and Richard can break through the 10 billion mark and become one of the richest groups in the world.

Now subsidizing Big Ben or chasing eggs, this money is completely astronomical in the eyes of ordinary people......

If Big Ben were to be suspended for 20 games and fined, he could end up losing more than $2 million.

Egg Chasing Green's loss is small, less than $100,000......

This more than 2 million US dollars may be a huge amount of money that ordinary people will not be able to earn in a few lifetimes.

But for Richard, it's really a drop in the bucket......

Now Richard may take his family out for a vacation and can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Richard in his previous life thought it was good to be rich, but he was really rich in this life, and he found out......

It's better to be rich, it's just cool.

……

After the press conference, the press conference waited for the results of the league's punishment to be announced the next morning.

That night, Xiao Hua did not hold any emergency meeting to discuss the punishment plan for the Clippers, but directly contacted Tan Huimin, the current vice president of the alliance, and directly asked him to draw up a punishment plan.

At first glance, when you hear the name Tan Huimin, maybe fans will mumble, this is another Chinese? Why do Chinese have such a strong presence in the NBA?

In fact, this Tan Huimin is not Chinese, but he has one-eighth Chinese blood in his body, and his mother gave him this Chinese name.

His English name is Mark Tatum, but he usually uses Tan Huimin's name when facing Chinese media or Asian media......

"Mr. President, don't you need to discuss this matter?" Tan Huimin glanced at the punishment plan given to him by Xiao Hua, and asked with a frown.

In his opinion, this punishment plan is too light and too light, even if it does not consider the situation that Xiao Hua has just taken the position and needs to stand up, this punishment is also a bit light in the era of Stern's reign.

Tan Huimin has not entered the core power circle of the NBA before, so he is not very clear about the relationship between Richard and Xiao Hua.

"There is no need to hold a meeting, just announce the punishment results on the official website." Xiao Hua shook his head and said.

"Okay, Mr. President, I'll do ......," Tan Huimin said and left Xiao Hua's office.

……

Early the next morning, the official website of the alliance announced the punishment plan.

Ben Wallace of the Clippers was fined $30,000 plus a 17-game suspension, and Draymond Green was fined $15,000 plus three suspensions.

The New York Knicks' Amare Stoudemire has a one-game suspension and J.R. Smith has a one-game suspension.

As soon as this news came out, everyone in the whole league was dumbfounded......

It's such a punishment scheme?! Xiao Hua is sure he's not funny?!

It's not that the punishment of Big Ben and Chasing Egg is too light, in the eyes of fans, the ban has risen to more than 10 games, in fact, this is already a very serious punishment.

What really made them speechless was that Xiao Si and JR, the two victims, were also banned.

But if you think about it carefully, this punishment is not completely unreasonable, after all, before the incident, Xiao Si had an action of smashing the big book with the ball, which was also the fuse of this brawl, and it was reasonable to give a ban.

As for JR Smith, he also had the intention of attacking Big Ben, so he was also banned for one game.

Originally, the fans predicted that the three fires of the new official took office, but they did not burn up, and the league's punishment cannot be said to be taken lightly, but it is certainly not serious.

In this case, many fans are speculating whether Xiao Hua will be the president who advocates that kind of brutal style of football, does he also feel that the current league is too lacking in ferocity, and wants to let the league return to the style of the nineties of the last century? !
